[quote=Anonymous][quote]I am the poster who was fortunate enough to have the pleasure of music and figure skating training. From the viewpoint of a child, I am grateful my parents did not think like you. I cherish my years at the piano and on the ice. [b]I love the feeling of freedom and expression you get out of mastering this. You aren't providing this for your children.[/b] That's fine. The thing is this: you aren't better than anyone who is. You aren't superior. Certainly not to my parents. Camping and climbing trees mean nothing to me. [b]You are pretending that you are a better parent [/b]because you avoid activities that cost money. And you aren't. Not at all.[/quote] Saying "I am grateful my parents did not think like you" is rather condescending. Also "you aren't providing this for your children"??? Really? Who are you to judge that someone is not providing the feeling of freedom and expression to their children? Wow. [/quote]
